ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of electronic moxibustion in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy due to liver-kidney deficiency. Method Ninety patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy due to liver-kidney deficiency were randomized into a treatment group of 44 cases and a control group of 46 cases. The treatment group was intervened by acupoint therapy by warm electronic moxibustion, while the control group was intervened by foot bath with Chinese medication. For both groups, 10 treatment sessions were taken as a course of treatment, for 3 courses in total. Before and after the treatment, the whole blood viscosity, blood lipids, fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (GHb) and Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) were evaluated in the two groups. Result The whole blood viscosity indexes, blood lipids levels, FBG level and GHb level didn't show significant differences after the treatment in the two groups (P>0.05). The intra-group and inter-group comparisons of MNSI score showed significant differences after the treatment (P<0.01); there was a between-group difference in the change of MNSI score after the treatment (P<0.01). Conclusion Electronic moxibustion is an effective approach in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
